It's curtains for a famous Broadway director, and private
investigator Nero Wolfe is on the case-but his assistant, Archie
Goodwin, is a suspect. When a renowned theater director senses
something amiss during his latest production, he calls in Nero
Wolfe. Though the corpulent genius wouldn't normally accept a job
this vague, a mutual friend dangles the prospect of a very rare
orchid in exchange for his services, and Wolfe can't resist. With a
mind to suss out useful backstage gossip, Wolfe turns to his
faithful assistant, Archie Goodwin, to impersonate a journalist in
order to speak to the cast. Though Goodwin's conversations prove
unfruitful, on his last day at the theater, the director is
murdered in his soundproof booth, poisoned by an unseen culprit
during an evening performance. In short order, an actor whose
health is failing attempts suicide with the same poison. Now
Goodwin is a prime suspect in the director's demise, effectively
sidelining him for the rest of the case, and freelance gumshoe Saul
Panzer must step in to help wrangle the various members of the
play-from the ingenue and the diva to the handsome movie star and
the surly stage manager-so New York's smartest, and most reclusive,
private detective can determine who is responsible for these
dramatic deaths and clear Goodwin's name once and for all.
Continuing his beloved series-which also includes Archie Meets Nero
Wolfe, Murder in the Ball Park, and Archie in the Crosshairs-Nero
Award-winning author Robert Goldsborough "brings Nero Wolfe, late
of Rex Stout, gloriously back to life" (Chicago). Murder, Stage
Left is the 59th book in the Nero Wolfe Mysteries, but you may
enjoy reading the series in any order.
